In 1981 Marvel Comics' editor Ralph Macchio noticed his work and called him to work for an adaptation of Kull of Valusia for Epic Comics. After illustrating two Kull stories, Bolton began working on the historical-fantasy character Marada, written by Chris Claremont (author of X-Men). This was published by Epic Illustrated one year later. After another fantasy series, Black Dragon (1985), the duo Claremont & Bolton produced some short stories about X-Men's lives for X-Men Classic. This represented the first introduction of Bolton to the world of superheroes. In this period Bolton worked on covers for Eclipse and Pacific publishers, and on the graphic novel Someplace Strange, written by Ann Nocenti (1988).
  • British comic artist John Bolton was the main contributor to the Brown & Watson Planet of the Apes annuals published between 1975 and 1977. His fantastically-detailed artwork was significantly above the standard expected of such publications of the time, both in the comic strips he drew, and particularly in the uncoloured spot illustrations he provided to accompany some of the short stories. Bolton has since become a top artist of the fantasy and horror genre. As well as the occasional exhibition of his work and some cracking book covers, he also continues to work in the field of comics where he still produces quality work for the likes of DC's Books of Magic. In his time he has tackled many of the major characters including Batman and X-Men, as well as making his mark on a couple of other 20th Century Fox sci-fi franchises.
